 DataTable dt = new DataTable();
                dt.Columns.Add("c1");
                dt.Rows.Add("1");
                dt.Rows.Add("2");
                dt.Rows.Add("3");
                dt.Rows.Add("4");
                dt.Rows.Add("5");
                dt.Rows.Add("6");
                dt.Rows.Add("7");

You will need to package the 6 number batches into another class:

class Batch
{
    public int One {get;set;}
    // etc
}

And give the data repeater a list of these:

var l = new List<Batch>();
dataRepeater1.DataSource = l;

Your repeater will then need controls inside it that look at the properties on the Batch class. The class wrapper is required because the repeater will repeat for each item in a collection (row in a DataTable for example) so to group them, you need to do that manually.
